We're back — and yeah, we owe you some context. This teaser for Season 2 of You Got a Minute? is Amanda and Lizzie catching you up on where they went: a major surgery, a longer recovery than expected, and the kind of forced stop that ends up teaching you things you didn't know you needed to learn. This isn't a comeback. It's not a snapback or a bounce back. It's something different — showing up a little more themselves, with more to say.

This season is about the conversations actually happening at work. Not the polished ones. The parking lot ones. The "hey, are you still online, can I grab you for a second?" ones. The moments where you know you want to say something but you don't have the words yet. If you're a woman at work right now — whatever seat you're in — this season was built for you.

We made it! 11 episodes of You Got a Minute?. What started as an experiment turned into some of the most real, unfiltered conversations we’ve had about work, leadership, and life.

In this season finale, we reflect on what we’ve learned, what surprised us, and what’s next. Amanda shares an honest update about an unexpected surgery and the hard but necessary decision to pause... on the podcast and in work. We talk about what it means to listen to your body, to pivot when life demands it, and to hold space for both joy and uncertainty.

We’ll be back with Season Two soon - when the time is right. Until then, revisit your favorite episodes, share them with friends, and let us know what you’d love to hear in the future. Thank you for being part of this community. We couldn’t have asked for a better first season.

One year as business partners: what have we learned? In this episode, we share the real story of what it’s like to run a company together while building a life together.

Play isn’t the opposite of work - it’s the key to doing it better. This week, we’re joined by leadership coach, facilitator, and performance activist Sarah Filman (she/they), founder of Playful Perspectives and co-founder of The Improv Mindset. We talk about the role of play in leadership, team culture, and personal growth, and why it’s more than ping-pong tables and happy hours. From breaking out of status-quo thinking to loosening your grip on control, Sarah shares how play can shift power, spark creativity, and create safer, more collaborative workplaces. We also dig into practical tools, including her 52-card Playful Perspectives deck, and how to start bringing play into your own life and leadership in small, meaningful ways.

Yes, it’s real. And yes, we’ve fired clients over it. In this episode, we get personal about what it means to have a No Assholes Policy, and why we don’t work with people who lead with hubris, ego, or disrespect. We talk about who gets forgiven (and who gets labeled “difficult”), how power protects bad behavior, and what it actually costs to keep toxic people around.

This isn’t just a rant (though there’s righteous rage involved). It’s a case for building cultures where respect, psychological safety, and accountability aren’t optional - whether you’re leading a team or just trying to survive one. Plus: who we do listen to, and how we keep ourselves in check, too.

A CEO. A Chief People Officer. A kiss cam. What started as a viral moment at a Coldplay concert revealed something deeper: what happens when the people who set the rules break them. In this episode, we unpack the power dynamics, the public fallout, and why removing a leader doesn’t equal repairing trust.

We talk about institutional accountability (or lack thereof), the ripple effects of silence, and what real leadership looks like when things go wrong. If you’ve ever felt like you were the only one seeing the cracks under the surface - this one’s for you.

In this follow-up episode, we’re answering your real questions- the ones about new job dread, bad vibes in interviews, and what happens when the Sunday Scaries aren’t in your head… they’re in your workplace. We talk about social anxiety at work, navigating toxic cultures, and yes, what to do when your manager tells you you’re “turning everyone gay.” From interview red flags to documentation strategies, this one’s personal, unfiltered, and packed with hard-earned wisdom.

Looking for a job right now? You're not imagining it - it's brutal out there.

Layoffs, ghost jobs, hiring timelines that stretch for months, and hundreds of applicants for a single role... we're naming all of it. In this episode, Amanda and Lizzie get real about the emotional and logistical hellscape that is the 2025 job market, and how to actually navigate it without losing your mind or your self-worth.

We’ll cover:

• Why job boards aren’t working

• How to get out of the endless void of online applications

• The power of telling your people you're looking

• Finding your “bridge job”

• And what it really means to tell a story recruiters can follow

This one’s for anyone who feels stuck, ghosted, or just plain tired. You are not your job. But we do want to help you find a better one.
